Protecting Large-scale IT systems developed and/or managed by eu-LISA from modern threats

Security must be a core element of all activities undertaken in an IT-focussed organisation. eu-LISA, for legislative reasons but also as a centre of excellence in the provisions of IT services, emphasises assurance of system and data security in all of its activities. Modern technology when appropriately chosen and implemented facilitates strong IT security and information assurance. Yet such is the range of technological innovations on the market and in the final stages of product development that appropriate decision making on implementation can be difficult. This document, based on monitoring of technologies and their development in the past year, seeks to report on the state of current and emerging cybersecurity-relevant technologies.
